S12 Ep621: Clash of the Titans (2010)

Author: WHM Entertainment July 12, 2022 Duration: 1:46:49

On this episode, the 2022 Summer Blockbuster Extravaganza puts on its sandals and raises its sword to the sky as we chat about 2010's Clash of the Titans!

Why is it that every monster in this movie had to be as big as a house, meanwhile most of Harryhausen's 1981 monsters are much smaller and way more terrifying? Why did we have to make this an edge lord revenge film instead of a fantasy/romance adventure? And did Ralph Fiennes really think he could play Hades just like he played Voldemort and no one would notice? PLUS: Much talk about Desmond Davis's totally kick-ass, original film from 1981!

Be sure to catch our VIRTUAL LIVE SHOW where we're talking about Ghostbusters: Afterlife and doing a night-of virtual Q&A, on Friday, July 29th! Click here for tickets.

Clash of the Titans stars Sam Worthington, Liam Neeson, Ralph Fiennes, Jason Flemyng, Gemma Arterton, Alexa Davalos, Mads Mikkelsen, Luke Evans, Liam Cunningham, and Nicholas Hoult; directed by Louis Leterrier.

For over a decade, the crew at We Hate Movies has been turning cinematic misfires into comedy gold. Each episode from WHM Entertainment finds a quartet of friends dissecting a famously bad film, from forgotten straight-to-video oddities to big-budget Hollywood disasters. The conversation is less a formal review and more like eavesdropping on the funniest, most brutally honest film debate at a bar, where tangents about obscure actors and baffling plot holes are not just encouraged, they’re the main event. You’ll hear them mercilessly roast wooden dialogue, ill-conceived special effects, and questionable life choices made by characters and filmmakers alike, all while building a surprising affection for these flawed creations. This podcast thrives on the specific joy of tearing apart a terrible movie with your most sarcastic friends, celebrating failure as its own form of entertainment. It’s a consistently hilarious escape for anyone who finds more genuine laughs in a film’s awkward silence or a poorly rendered CGI monster than in a perfectly crafted Oscar winner. The chemistry between the hosts turns each episode into a freewheeling comedic breakdown, making even the most tedious movie an absolute delight to revisit through their critical and deeply silly lens. Tune in for a masterclass in comedic riffing, where the love for cinema is undeniable, even when-or especially when-the movies themselves are not.
